CCDS stands for Common Clinical Data Set, which is a standard established by The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology. CCDS is formerly known as the Common MU Data Set, which is comprised of data from standards adopted by ONC, including data like Patient name, Sex, Date of Birth, etc.
Accordingly to the standard of FHIR and CCDS, the client software or applications must be able to make requests complying with FHIR Level 3 Standard, and consuming the response resources to support CCDS. This RESTful server is providing resources and its element accordingly to satisfy the standard of CCDS.
